Dr. Zhou Xiaofeng
Wind Oil has functions of anti-inflammation, analgesia, antibacterial action, and hemostasis, and can be used to treat symptoms such as headache, oral ulcers, and trauma. This medication can be used externally or taken orally. However, experts also remind that the oral dosage of Wind Oil should be controlled between 3-5 milliliters, should not exceed 10 milliliters per dose, and should not exceed 20 milliliters per day. Especially for children, Wind Oil is suitable for those over one month of age and should be taken orally under a doctor's guidance. Additionally, oral administration of Wind Oil may cause adverse reactions such as oral irritation and gastrointestinal discomfort; therefore, it is essential to follow medical instructions and pay attention to safe medication use.
